The wife of US President Donald Trump's new communications director reportedly filed for divorce while nine-months-pregnant, after becoming 'fed up'.

Since filing the paperwork, the couple have been hit with several rumours of marital strife going back months, including claims of verbal abuse.

The couple were married for three years before deciding to split.

It's been reported that Diedre, 38, demanded a divorce from Anthony Scaramucci, 53, just three weeks ago, the New York Post reports, with the divorce papers filed on July 6.

It's also been reported that when his estranged wife gave birth to their second child, a son she named James, Scaramucci sent a text to congratulate her, only meeting his new son days later due to commitments travelling with President Trump.

An associate of the Communications Director told media this was because Diedre gave birth two weeks earlier than the expected August 8 due date, requiring James to be transferred to the special care neonatal unit.

Now there are reports the couple are hardly speaking to each other, with each accusing the other of verbal abuse.

Scaramucci has been in hot water several times already since taking on the role in Trump's controversial White House, with a journalist publishing a expletive-written rant about colleagues just days ago.

On his official Twitter page, Scaramucci announced he'd be deleting past tweets because they were focusing on his personal life rather than the President, but recently posted two tweets asking media to be more 'respectful' when covering his personal life.

He wrote on Twitter, "Leave civilians out of this. I can take the hits, but I would ask that you would put my family in your thoughts and prayers and nothing more."

In a separate tweet, Scaramucci said, "Family does not need to be drawn into this. Soon we will learn who in the media has class and who doesn't.

No further comment on this."

While accusations fly back and forth, a source has told the Post couple are trying to divorce 'amicably' for the sake of their two children.

The couple met when Diedre began working at his her ex-husband's hedge fund, SkyBridge Capital in 2007 as an assistant.

They were both in their first marriages when met and subsequently divorced their respective partners, their Nicholas born in early 2014 and they were married on July 11 in 2014 on Long Island.

A source told the Post the couple began having problems when Diedre was unable to join her husband on his frequent nights out due to their son and her second pregnancy.

Others have claimed Scaramucci had been 'planning to divorce for some time'.

While this messy divorce plays out publicly thanks to Anthony Scaramucci's high-profile job, he certainly has his hands full with rumours of inappropriate Russian relations in the Trump family and internal strife continuing to surround the Oval Office.
